[FONT=メイリオ] Hyogo Prefecture announced on the 22nd that it confirmed the infection of swine fever (CSF), a domestic animal infectious disease, at a pig farm in Minamiawaji City. About 650 pigs raised at this farm will be slaughtered from the same day, and epidemic prevention measures such as incineration and burial will be carried out for about a week. This is the first case of swine fever at a pig farm in the prefecture in 34 years, since 1989 when it was confirmed as "pig cholera" in Kozuki Town (now Sayo Town).
According to the prefectural government, on the morning of the 20th, a pig farm in Minamiawaji City reported to the prefecture's Awaji Livestock Hygiene Center that there were pigs with poor growth and dead pigs. On the 22nd, a total of 10 piglets were confirmed to be positive in a national genetic test.[/FONT]
